If I Can You Can Too...

A quick bread delight. Zucchini Bread!

First take your zucchini and wash it really well.

Then you will need to shred it, the hand grader works well.


Go pre-heat your oven to 325 degrees.

Then find a small mixing bowl and add 2 cups of sugar.

To the sugar add, 3 eggs beaten, 1 cup of vegetable oil, and 1 tablespoon vanilla. Mix well!

Now add 2 cups of the shredded zucchini.


Let this aside for a moment and find a large mixing bowl.

In the large mixing bowl add 3 cups of flower.

Add 2 teaspoons of cinnamon

Add 1 teaspoon baking powder

Add 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon salt, mix well!



Now add the liquid mix to the large mixing bowl with the dry mix. Mix well! You can add some nuts at this point if you like, 1 cup walnuts or such, but I didn't have any so, no nuts here.


Pour your mixture into your baking dish, make sure to grease the loaf pan if you are not using a Pampered Chef stone, otherwise you will never get the loaves out. Will make two regular loaves or 4 mini ones.

Put in the oven to bake for 55-65 minutes, until your toothpick comes out of the center clean. It is best to allow the bread to cool for a bit before attempting to remove from the pan.

There you have it, a quick wonderful easy, bread, lovely for a tea and a chat mid-day or any time really.

Enjoy!

What, you don't have zucchini on hand, well try subbing something else instead: banana, apple, cherries, pumpkin, whatever. I have some frozen rhubarb, that I'll likely give a go next time.
